Merida eTrilogy Range

eONE SIXTY CF – Low weight, uncompromised handling, maximum power.

Rider Profile: The performance-orientated rider and hardcore racer.

The eONE-SIXTY CF is for the performance-orientated rider and hardcore racer who inputs a high level of effort on top of motor assistance and values handling, agility and low weight over outright battery range. The rider likes to take on the toughest climbs and descents during training sessions and push the bikes to their limits in e-enduro races and demanding enduro runs.

 

eONE SIXTY Lite – Range is king. Full power, all the time.

RIDER PROFILE: The adventure-orienated and demanding rider

Maximum range paired with race-ready handling are the key elements for the eONE-SIXTY LITE rider. To be able to do multiple demanding e-enduro sessions or challenging long-distance races, the rider requires top-end performance, but values range over absolute handling ability and low weight. And while the rider is not shying away from an involving riding style, the element of adventure and good times in the saddle are often the key ride objective rather than ‘split-second race performance’.

 

eONE FORTY – Any Trail Any Place

RIDER PROFILE: The versatile rider

Moving in a slightly different direction from it’s longer travel stable mates is the new all-aluminium eONE-FORTY. Based on the same main frame but with a rear pivot (rather than a flex pivot) rear end, the eONE-FORTY oozes versatility being perfectly at home in less technically demanding terrain.

 

The eONE SIXTY  

e160 CF – Low weight, uncompromised handling and maximum power.

Full power assistance and range at mid-support weight. The new carbon-framed eONE-SIXTY CF is Merida’s race and performance-orientated e-bike. Key features are an all-carbon frame with a non-removal 600 Wh internal battery. By not offering a battery cut-out for battery removal and using sophisticated carbon lay-ups, Merida could massively increase stiffness and further reduce weight compared to previous e160 models. The low overall weight, combined with the battery being positioned low in the downtube, delivers maximum handling and manoeuvrability for when every second counts.

 

e160 Lite – Range is king. Full power, all the time.

By using aluminium for the entire frame, Merida deliver great value while maintaining stiffness and durability even with the larger battery cut-out needed for the removable battery. Similarly to its carbon counterpart, the eONE-SIXTY LITE also has increased suspension to 170 mm front and 174 mm rear travel and comes with mullet wheels setup across all sizes for maximum ‘steep terrain performance’ and agility. Via the Flip Chip, the wheel configuration can be adapted to 29er on both ends, which reduces the rear wheel travel to 160 mm but does not affect the geometry.

By combining the bigger 750 Wh battery with a 360 Wh range extender, the battery capacity increases almost 80% over the current outgoing 630 Wh version – making the eONE-SIXTY LITE the perfect bike for long and demanding e-bike outings. The new all-aluminium eONE-SIXTY LITE perfectly combines trail performance and handling with maximum battery capacity.

The all-aluminium frame features the same geometry and suspension configuration as eONE-SIXTY CF, but at its heart, it has a 750 Wh removable battery that the 360 Wh range extender can further increase meaning the only limits on your adventures are how many maps you can carry.

 

Key New Features of the e160 CF and e160 Lite

E-BIKE-SPECIFIC FAST KINEMATIC SUSPENSION

• Flexstay design with completely symmetric seat stays
• Size-specific suspension kinematics and progression, which allow the usage of coil shocks if desired
• Offset shock to provide clearance for the range extender battery

 

PROGRESSIVE BUT BALANCED E-BIKE-SPECIFIC GEOMETRY

• Steep seat angle: 78.4°
• Slack head tube angle: 64.4°
• Long reach for stability, short chainstays to keep the bike agile, and a steep seat angle so that the front end is planted when climbing, yet the top tube doesn’t feel too long while pedalling on the flat
• Easy switch between 29” and mixed 29/27.5” ‘mullet’ setup wheel thanks to a flip chip in the rocker

 

AGILOMETER – THE RIGHT SIZE FOR ALL RIDING STYLES

• Frame grows mainly in reach and wheelbase, while seat tube and head tube remain relatively close
• Short head tube to allow flexibility in height
• Right seat height on all frame sizes – thanks to the short, but straight seat tube and the innovative travel-adjustable dropper seat post fitted to most models
• Rider can choose between frame reaches – depending on preference
